Hi, I am new at Kicad (coming from Eagle) and I’m working on a test / learning project where I am using SMD capacitors.
Since the footprint I need was not in the footprint Capacitor_SMD library (I need a 6.6x6.6), I decided to create a project-specific library for the missing size(s). I probably made the mistake to give it the same name (Capacitor_SMD). The library was then listed in the footprints, but was empty and although I removed the project- specific library, the global Capacitor_SMD is still coming up empty…
I went to look at the content of the footprints database and everything is there, although not showing up in the application…
Is there an easier fix than re-installing everything?
Thanks,
Michel
